Zapping World Fifteenth “I have come a long way,” says Mathieu Bastareaud after his return
At the start of the fourth day of the championship, Perpignan received the Rugby Club Toulonnais. At the end of a match marked by pouring rain and the 120th anniversary of the Catalan club, the Sang et Or won their first success of the season with a score of 19 to 13. The latter managed to make a difference thanks in particular to their front and a very successful Tristan Tedder.
While on their side, the men of the Franck Azéma-Pierre Mignoni duo never managed to get the upper hand on the opponent and were too imprecise to score points from this away match. After the strong annoyance of the former Clermont coach, Benoit Paillaugue, holder of the number 9 on his back yesterday afternoon, did not mince words to discuss the team’s performance.
“You can have any strategy in the world, if you don’t lay the foundations of this sport, you don’t exist. Especially against a team that plays its survival in every game. You have to go home with this humility there, this lesson It’s not because you have good ones players and because you are Toulon that you will invest everyone, indeed. […] So we don’t shoot twelve shots, but I say it and I repeat it: this championship is not waiting for you. And there we didn’t show anything, we didn’t start the game once … We have to go back to work and shut up. “He confided in Var-Matin.
